South Carolina Personal Injury Law Firm Proud to Serve the Lexington Community

Lexington is a beautiful and historic piece of the South Carolina landscape, and our law firm has always been proud to represent those from the Lexington area who have been hurt in accidents. Over the years, we have represented a number of fine Lexington residents ranging from a computer programmer to an industrial worker to a real estate agent to a retired tow truck driver - just to name a few.

Our law firm is dedicated to respecting the dignity of those who have been hurt and upholding the laws and values of our great state so that victims can receive the compensation they deserve after a tragedy has shaken their lives. We are proud to care for and protect the rights of the communities we serve, following a set of core values that motivate us in everything we do.

What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?

We get this question a lot because people wonder where the advantage lies in hiring a personal injury lawyer. I put together this list of what I do as an accident attorney and how my team and I can potentially help maximize your case’s value.

1. Gather and preserve evidence to build a stronger case.

2. Negotiate with insurance companies.

3. Hire experts to help prove liability, determine future costs, and calculate lost earnings to help maximize the value of your case.

4. Identify all possible sources of compensation after someone is injured.

5. Take your case to trial if an insurance company refuses to pay a fair settlement.

6. Set up liens against your medical bills so they won’t go into collections while you wait for your settlement money.

7. At the end of your case, our legal team can attempt to negotiate to reduce your medical liens.

8. Client-focused injury lawyers will take everything off your plate so you can focus on healing while they focus on your case.

When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?

Put simply, if you have been needlessly injured due to someone else’s negligence or recklessness, I would consider at least contacting an attorney for a free consultation. The lawyer will listen to the facts of your case and assess whether legal representation would help.

Some situations where you will likely benefit from hiring a personal injury attorney include:

1. If you have severe injuries and mounting medical bills.

2. You were in a car accident that wasn’t your fault, and the other driver was driving under the influence.

3. The accident involved a commercial vehicle.

4. Liability is being denied by the insurance company.

5. The insurance company is stonewalling you.

Common Accidents in Lexington, SC

All of the growth and attention that Lexington has been receiving over the past decade has come with a cost, as you likely know. With more visitors and residents to the area has come an increased risk of serious car accidents and other injuries, and Lexington Medical Center is now the second-busiest emergency department in our state. Our law firm is here to help people in the Lexington area make a fair and full recovery from the responsible parties after being hurt. Likewise, the more we can hold the wrongdoer accountable, the less likely they are to do it again and hurt someone else.
